Tom Cruise: Brazillian Blunders

Tom Cruise, 46, attempted to make nice with reporters in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil this week but neglected to realize that Brazilians speak Portuguese, not Spanish.

Glamurama.com reports that the always affable Cruise, who is in Rio with wife Katie Holmes, 30, and daughter Suri Cruise, 2, to promote his World War II thriller Valkyrie, welcomed the press by saying hola (hello) and gracias (thanks), which are Spanish words.
